Build Science 301 - Ep. 11 | Flat Roof Cavity Insulated & Flat Roof Over Insulated

Flat roofs may not be truly flat, but they bring some truly unique challenges. In this episode, Steve and Matt explain why flat roofs are the ultimate “can’t vent” scenario and explore the two core approaches: insulating within the roof cavity or going all-in with rigid insulation above (aka the “Perfect Roof”). From membrane roof options to tapered insulation and airtightness strategies, this is the no-forgiveness roof that demands your A-game—and rewards it with resilience.
